Beer Tech: Put Better Beer in Your Belly

"Without question, the greatest invention in the history of mankind is beer," humorist Dave Barry has written. "Oh, I grant you the wheel was also a fine invention, but the wheel does not go nearly as well with pizza."

As with so many other vital matters, Barry hits the mark on beer. The drink has been delighting, calming and fortifying humans since before the beginning of recorded time. Beer is, in fact, probably older than the wheel. The world's oldest written recipe, inscribed on a clay tablet in about 1,800 B.C., is for beer.
